Well, im not that into those peanut-y bourbons/whiskys like Beam, Booker and Dickel.
On the nose, I was getting cherry and oak, with a very slight bit of leathery funk. It smells pretty darn good.
Palate-wise, I thought the different flavors of fruity cherry or maybe currant (I have terrible sense of taste), oak and peanut worked well together. I got oak the most. Some peanut but not too much. It’s a great mix and well executed.
I had a better experience tonight when I poured myself a drink and got sidetracked with something and came back 20 minutes later to enjoy. Last night, I added a little water to open it up, but it wasn’t necessary tonight.
Overall, it’s pretty solid. I like it, but not enough to justify the price. I bought two bottles once while travelling through some airport, I will likely use the other bottle as trade bait with friends.
